Time to take god out of it

I was watching jacob rees-mog on TV Earlier lamenting the secularisation of society, and I felt suddenly incensed. It occurred to me that If a child says they tak to their imaginary friend, and that it guides them, you smile and hope they grow out of it soon. If an adult claims to hear voices which guide him, you send him to a doctor. So why shouldn’t we do the same for those who believe in god and use that belief to dominate, discriminate and oppress others? Those on the right look down on atheists: I get the impression that they think they’re better than us, that they 6hink we are bespoiling society by taking God out of it, and that we should respect their point of view. Well, it’s time to cut the crap. to believe in god isn’t a mark of wisdom or superiority: it just means you’re a gullible idiot clinging to superstition because you”’re unable to cope with reality. why should we be forced to tolerate these morons opposed to secularisation when they perpetuate intolerance? god cannot exist – get over it, and stop sneering at those who base their ideas on religion. If we are ever to have a free, open and tolerant society, it must not privilege one belief over another, which means basing it on reason.
